Functional core training device for the muscular and myofascial systems in the body

Abstract

A muscle strengthening system is provided having a functional core endurance training device and a pair of rolling blocks for supporting the functional core endurance training device. Each rolling block in the pair of rolling blocks includes an elongated opening for receiving a wheel of the functional core endurance training device. Additionally, each rolling block in the pair of rolling blocks includes a pair of rollers, a stabilizer and a bumper guard for grounding the surface of the wheels of the functional core endurance training device allowing the wheels to spin with increased intensity. Optionally, an individual may utilize a stationary foot pedestal or a wheeled foot pedestal that provides for both the strengthening of the muscles of the individual while simultaneously stimulating an endurance building effect on the muscular and fascial systems of the body, all of which is achieved with minimal to no impact/pounding on the joints.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A system for strengthening muscles of an individual, comprising:
 a first rolling block having a first elongated opening, the first rolling block comprising:

 a second side panel, the second side panel secured to the first side panel by a first panel rod at a distal end of the first and second side panels and a second panel rod secured at a proximal end of the first and second side panels; and 
 wherein the first and second panel rods maintain the first side panel equidistant from the second side panel; 
 wherein the first rolling block further comprises a first stabilizing wheel connected to and extending perpendicularly outward from the second side panel; and 
 
 a second rolling block having a second elongated opening, the second rolling block secured to the first rolling block by a first elongated horizontal rod and a second elongated horizontal rod; 
 a functional core endurance training device, comprising:
 an elongated rotating axle having a first hand grip and a second hand grip separated by a mid-section shaft; 
 a first wheel rotatably secured to the first hand grip and received in the first elongated opening; and 
 a second wheel rotatably secured to the second hand grip and received in the second elongated opening. 
 
 
     
     
       2. The system of  claim 1 , wherein the first rolling block further comprises a first roller located in the distal end of the first elongated opening of the first rolling block, the first roller having a first grounding surface. 
     
     
       3. The system of  claim 2 , wherein the first rolling block further comprises a second roller located in the proximal end of the second elongated opening of the second rolling block having a second grounding surface. 
     
     
       4. The system of  claim 2 , wherein the first rolling block further comprises a third roller located in the distal end of the first elongated opening above the second roller. 
     
     
       5. The system of  claim 1 , wherein the second rolling block comprises:
 a third side panel; 
 a fourth side panel, the fourth side panel secured to the third side panel by a third panel rod at a distal end of the third and fourth side panels and a fourth panel rod secured at a proximal end of the third and fourth side panels; and 
 wherein the third and fourth panel rods maintain the third side panel equidistant from the fourth side panel. 
 
     
     
       6. The system of  claim 5 , wherein the second rolling block further comprises a first roller located in the distal end of the second elongated opening of the second rolling block, the first roller having a first grounding surface. 
     
     
       7. The system of  claim 6 , wherein the second rolling block further comprises a second roller located in the proximal end of the second elongated opening of the second rolling block having a second grounding surface. 
     
     
       8. A system for strengthening muscles of an individual, comprising:
 a first rolling block having a first elongated opening, the first rolling block comprising:
 a first side panel; 
 a second side panel, the second side panel secured to the first side panel by a first panel rod at a distal end of the first and second side panels and a second panel rod secured at a proximal end of the first and second side panels; and 
 wherein the first and second panel rods maintain the first side panel equidistant from the second side panel; 
 wherein the first rolling block further comprises a first stabilizing wheel connected to and extending perpendicularly outward from the second side panel; and 
 
 a second rolling block having a second elongated opening, the second rolling block secured to the first rolling block by a first elongated horizontal rod and a second elongated horizontal rod; 
 and a functional core endurance training device, comprising:
 an elongated rotating axle having a first hand grip and a second hand; 
 a first wheel rotatably secured to the first hand grip and received in the first elongated opening; 
 and a second wheel rotatably secured to the second hand grip and received in the second elongated opening. 
 
 
     
     
       9. The system of  claim 8 , wherein the second rolling block comprises:
 a third side panel; 
 a fourth side panel, the fourth side panel secured to the third side panel by a third panel rod at a distal end of the third and fourth side panels and a fourth panel rod secured at a proximal end of the third and fourth side panels; and 
 wherein the third and fourth panel rods maintain the third side panel equidistant from the fourth side panel. 
 
     
     
       10. The system of  claim 8 , wherein the first rolling block further comprises a first roller located in the distal end of the first elongated opening of the first rolling block, the first roller having a first grounding surface. 
     
     
       11. The system of  claim 10 , wherein the first rolling block further comprises a second roller located in the proximal end of the second elongated opening of the second rolling block having a second grounding surface. 
     
     
       12. The system of  claim 11 , wherein the first rolling block further comprises a third roller located in the distal end of the first elongated opening above the second roller. 
     
     
       13. The system of  claim 8 , wherein the second rolling block further comprises a first roller located in the distal end of the second elongated opening of the second rolling block, the first roller having a first grounding surface.
